sy, and demanded the repeal of the
resumption act after it had begun its
benefcent work.
With this wretched record. the dem
ocratic leaders at Washington now
announce that the tariff must be re-
duced so as to get rid of the surplus.
This is to be their first point to at
tack, as it always has been hereto
fore. 1t matters not that the pros
peritv of the entire country is depend
ent on the prosperity of its manu-
facture, and that when mills and
shops are shut down then all their in
dustry is depressed, including agri-
culture, trade and commerce. No
doubt the free list must be enlarged,
and the place to begin is with sugar,
from the consumers of which fifty
millions are eXtorted. At least one
half of this should go.
So should one-half the tobacco tax if
not the whole of it. No doubt the
free list can be extended, but any
extension that simply breaks down
home manufactures and home wages
is not a wholesome way to reduce the
surplus. British and Canadian inter-
ests are hoping for this no doubt;
hence their sympathies are with the
administration but these conditions
only render it justly suspicious that
their way is not our way. There can
be no general reduction of the tariff
without a reduction of wages.
Congress ought to make a resolute
attempt to restore the American car
rving trade. Should a liberal portion
of the surplus be devoted to that OBJ
iect, it would be wisely applied. This
was the one great enterprise that the
republicans had not carried out in
their general scheme of supplying the
waste of the war. Other and more
pressing matters had engaged their
attention. The restoration of the
party to national power on this
ground alone is not only warranted
but demanded. 1t is the only con-
structive party in the country. The
postal telegraph is another enterprise
that ought to be established, and a
good bit of the surplus should 60 for

Congress assembled on Monday.
Both houses were promptly organized
for business. without contest in eth
er. In the house, Carlisle, demo
crat, was chosen speaker, having 1913
votes, TO AS for Reed Of Maine,
republican, ? for Brum of Pa, cast
by independents. The democratic
candidates for officers Of the house
were also chosen, and after drawing
OF. seats adjourned.
The senate continued under its
former organization, with senator
Ingalls, of Kansas, republican, as
president. The new senators took
the oath of office. Two persons
claim to be senators from West Viz
glnia. and when Mr. Faulkner's cred
entails were presented senator Hoar
objected, and they were referred to
the committee on elections without
opposition. In this case one claim
ant. Lucas, holds an appointment
from the governor, and Faulkner
was elected at a special session of
the legislature, after Lucas had been
appointed. The question is there

are democrats. Some question as
